February Fun

Going on a walk with Daddy

Cleaning up the never ending supply of hay twine

 Kaden taking the girls for a ride up at the Stokes Cabin. We spent Valentines weekend with the Stokes and Mortensens in Bear Lake and had a blast as always. Every night the adults would play a competitive game of Wacky 6. 

Lincoln comforting Tyler at the dentist office. I love how sweet Lincoln can be!!!

Taking a turn on the spin bike

Hours of fun playing "Horsey"

 Temper Tantrums

 Coloring Fun...good thing I only have washable markers out!!

Ski Day with Lincoln

Lincoln is an amazing little skier!! 

This winter most Wednesdays I would check the boys out of school early head up to SnowBasin. This day I got a babysitter for Kennedy and was able to spend the afternoon skiing with Lincoln while the big boys were off and about. 

It was so much fun we would head up the gondola and hit all the terrain parks on the way down. He is one determined and fearless little boy. 

Happy Birthday Kennedy

My baby girl is 3 and I couldn't love her more... she is sweet, tells me she loves me, will still  snuggle and gives the best hugs and then she is feisty, determined and fiercely independent. We love you with ALL our HEARTS!! 

You like to yell for Lincoln when you are sent to your room, you have been telling people your are going to punch them in the face and hold your cute little fists up. Your favorite song is "I Bet My Life On You" by Imagine Dragons. You LOVE to dance and you love watching Princess Sophia and Barbie Movies. You have an amazing imagination and will play with markers like they are little people. You are amazing just please STOP GROWING!!

Hawaii

 Woke up at 2:40 am and went to watch the sunrise at Haleakala National Park

 It was freezing but absolutely beautiful

The silver star plant that is indigenous to Hawaii

 We then rhode our bikes down 26.2 miles in the pouring rain. We wish we could have gone faster but had to follow the guide. But we went through some absolutely cute towns and had fun. 

 In our group was a couple we met that moved from the states 30 years ago to Israel we asked how it was to live there with how dangerous it is and they said even with all the chaos they are able to see the "hand of God" everyday. It was fun to talk to them. 

The Winston Hotel Luau!! 

This was soo much fun. This guy was our host and he was hilarious. I got called up on stage and had to drink the coconut milk. As I was leaving he asked for a kiss on the cheek so I did and of course he turned his head....LOL!! We sat at a table with super fun couples from Iowa and Michigan. One of the guys played in the 1979 Super Bowl with the Dallas Cowboys against the Pittsburgh Steelers. A great night!!

Lanai Island

We took a boat/raft over to Lanai Island on our way over we saw a dolphin and 2 whales. At Lanai we got to explore some fun tide pools, go on a cool hike and just enjoy the beautiful beach. It was windy so the snorkeling was not that good but going over the waves back to Maui was a blast.
